Thank you to Netgalley the Publisher, of Crane and Leeu Press, and the author Jeanné Olivier for providing and allowing me to review this book. Which, I'm giving my honest and sincere review.

"The Girl in my Dreams" by Jeanne Olivier had me completely engrossed from the get-go. As someone who loves a good blend of romance and suspense, this book hit all the right notes for me.
From the moment Oliver, the up-and-coming rock star, meets Nina at the club, I could feel the sparks flying off the page. But then, the unexpected happens—a car crash leaves Oliver injured and Nina in a coma. Talk about a plot twist!
As Oliver grapples with his recovery, his vivid dreams of Nina add an intriguing layer of mystery to the story. I found myself eagerly turning the pages, desperate to uncover the secrets lurking within their shared dreams.
What really grabbed my attention was the way Olivier skillfully built tension and suspense throughout the book. With each chapter, I was on the edge of my seat, wondering what would happen next and how Oliver and Nina's story would unfold.
But it wasn't just the suspense that kept me hooked—the romance between Oliver and Nina was incredibly compelling. Despite the obstacles they faced, their connection felt genuine and heartfelt, making me root for them every step of the way.
And let's talk about those plot twists! Just when I thought I had everything figured out, Olivier threw in another curveball that left me reeling. The revelations about Oliver and Nina's shared dreams had me questioning everything I thought I knew about their relationship.

Overall, "The Girl in my Dreams" is a rollercoaster of emotions—a gripping love story with plenty of twists and turns to keep you guessing. If you're a fan of romance and suspense, this book is an absolute must-read. Trust me, you won't be able to put it down!

With his sons held captive and time ticking away, Prince Mabon faces a desperate race against time. Failure means losing his sons forever and witnessing his wife endure a gruesome fate before his eyes.

As I immersed myself in the pages of "Wing Stroke," I was drawn into a world of revenge and change, where every twist and turn kept me on the edge of my seat. The gripping narrative goes beyond a simple quest for reclaiming a kingdom, delving into themes of recognition and survival in a world that refuses to acknowledge their existence.

m.a. Arana's masterful storytelling brought the characters and the world of Ava to life, painting a vivid picture of magic, danger, and resilience. "Wing Stroke" is a captivating read that left me eagerly anticipating the next installment in Prince Mabon's journey.

    Released on Mar 26, 2024, The Other Side of Disappearing follows the story of a Hairstylist Jess, who finds herself dealing with the effects of the disappearance of her mother, leaving her years ago with a notorious con artist.

Left behind to shoulder the responsibility of raising her half-sister Teagan, Jess sacrificed her aspirations to shield Teagan from the anguish of abandonment. Now on the verge of adulthood, Teagan embarks on a quest fueled by a newfound lead suggesting their mother may still be reachable. With unwavering determination, Teagan enlists the help of unlikely allies: Salem Durant, a captivating true-crime podcaster, and her astute assistant Adam.

    When Teagan decides to go on a journey by herself, Jess finds herself obligated to join in hopes of protecting Teagan from harsh truths. As they pursue a trail of compelling clues, the journey to locate their mother becomes an odyssey of self-discovery, where the search for one lost soul may ultimately lead to the illumination of their own identity.

    On a personal and emotional level, I see the longing for the loss and the grief of a missing parent portrayed very well. The nonending ifs and questions about why her mother left then the feeling of betrayal and resentment are so valid. Jess left her feelings aside, focusing only on raising Teagan well and not missing her mother.

We can see the evolution of relationships between the sisters, the dynamic between Adam and Jess, and the personal growth of all the characters.

    We have a Dual POV, alternating between Jess and Adam, with a writing style that is clear and concise. Despite the presence of descriptive elements for both characters and the story, they serve a vital purpose, enriching and enhancing the overall narrative.

I found this read immensely enjoyable, feeling that the book was expertly crafted, evoking a range of emotions throughout.

I highly recommend this book!

I was torn between 3.5 and 5 stars, but ultimately, I think a solid 4-star rating is the best fit.
